Bruno Vacon les Innocents C'est moi qui s'occupe des Lapins 2020
Regular price $98.00
Bruno planted his vineyard outside Han-sur-Meuse in Lorraine just over twelve years ago. The site was planted over Jurrasic era limestone with a massale selection from a neighbouring property and the vines are staked with the echalas system. The farming is Fukuoka inspired so there is no cultivation of the soil. The hillside Bruno planted on has never been treated with chemicals. This is 100% pinot noir with lots of limestone freshness.
This wine just blows me away. Despite what you imagine pinot noir from this far northern French region to taste like, this is right in powerful Côte de Nuits territory, albeit with an earthier varietal expression in place of the sweet fruit of recent Burgundian vintages.
This intensely delicious, structured red wine drinks very well over three days, testament to an exceptionally tidy vinification and elevage and breath taking fruit. - Cam Burton, Importer
